The International Center for the Study of Violent Extremism (ICSVE) is new. Started in July of 2015, ICSVE grew out of Dr. Anne Speckhard’ s work on counterterrorism and counter-radicalization spanning more than two decades.
Their growing team of diverse academic and professional backgrounds provides research, training, and strategic advice to government leaders, intelligence, defense, international organizations, police and civilian communities worldwide to prevent and deter the threat of violent extremism in the core areas such as capacity building and programmatic support, countering extremist narrative, alternative narrative, developing community resilience, managing intervention activities, and training.
